HE WAS CURED. A Youas Man Who Wanted to be a De tective. From the Cincinnati Enautrer. “I cured a boy tb Is week of his desire to become a detective,” said Detective Billy Hu/.en, of tlie llazen Agency, yesterday. Billy was seated in ttxo lobby at the Gibson House chatting with several friends. He had been a iked a few questions as to the duties of a detective and hail given some in teresting points in regard to what was necessary to make a good one. “The regu lar crook,” ho said, “ is a man of intelligence and of strong will power. It takes a man equally acute, to get anything near sueh a man. He must be a man of resources, able and ready to take advantage of anything that may turn up, and, if detected in his business, "prompt in squaring himself with a crook and in dispelling all suspicions. Of courso, HE MUST BE A GREAT ACTOR and be possessed of a quick insight into hu man character, agreeable and eompanion nble.” Then he spoke of the desire to be come a detective, which seems to fill so many young men. “This week,” he continued, “a well-known gentleman came to me and said that, his son, a hoy of alfout 30 years of ago, was bent upon being a detective. I told him to send the boy to me. Sure enough, last Tuesday morning he put in an apjjearanee. He was a bright, clever lad, I saw that at once. I gave him the description of a cer tain bank clerk, told him the bank in which he wan employed, and said that I wanted the clerk’s name. He started out. In less than an hour ho was back, highly elated. He had the name f wanted. Understand me, it was square business. I wanted the clerk ‘spotted. Well, I told him to watch the clerk constantly until the clerk went to bed that night. He went away, and the next morning was on hand bright and early with his report all written out. He was a little careworn, I noticed. I told him to keep on with his work. HE SHOWED UP the next morning with his report, hut that was the last I saw of him. I understand now that he returned to his studies and is perfectly satisfied with his experience as a detective.” “What do you mean by spotting a man?” asked one of the party. “It is to follow him from early morning until he retires at night.—to his meals, to his business; to notice with whom he talks,what he does, and then to be able to report it all in a condensed, intelligent way. It is the most difficult part of detective work. Some men arc fit for nothing else. I have had men who could follow a clerk or book keeper and never permit him to escape for a moment. On any other branch of the business, though, they would be entirely at sea. Shadowing is indeed the most difficult and really sci .<il.dk- work in our line. My father early put me to doing that, and it de veloped patience and perseverance to follow up a case, even when everything appeared against me. If a man is shadowed for two weeks alone almost his entire inner life be comes known, and I want to say to you that most ALL MEN HAVE INNER LIVES, that is, lead a dual existence. More men in this city have been shadowed than any per son has an idea of. Wives have their hus bands shallowed and husbands their wives. Almost every man in this city, prominent in business circles or in politics, has been shadowed, and there is filed away with some person or other a report that would make tome men, considered above reproach, fairly tremble. I know one man in Cincinnati whom I was shadowing once. He is the junior member in one of the largest dry goods houses in the town. He stood in a Vine street resort for half an hour one evening lecturing a fr'end of mine, a young man, on morality, and one would have thought him the purest man in the world. That, very night Sergt. Gill at Central Police Station, had occasion to look through a certain as signation house for a man he wanted. There he found the man to whom I refer. He was with the w-ife of one of his traveling sales men, and almost died when discovered. We have many banks and business houses here, and I suppose we have at one time or another SHADOWED ALMOST EVERY EMPLOYE of all of them. The employers, you see, want to know what their men are doing. It has only been about two months since my father, who then had charge of our business, sent for a certain bank clerk. He is a good, clever, manly fellow —a thorough prince. My father read to him a report of what he had been doing for a week. The young man was not bad, but was getting a little wild. He had been playing poker and visiting houses of illrepute; drinking wine and all that. His eyes bulged out larger than saucers when my father read him a record of his little breaks. He was given some whole some advice, and it made a different man of him, no doubt preventing him from going wrong. A good, lively subject will lead a detective a terrible raco to keep up with him and also avoid detection.” “The shadow is kept very busy, then,” re marked a reporter. “Indeed he is. There are three branches to our business. There is the shadow, the investigator and the roper-in. Some great criminals have been captured by means of a shadow. The robbers of the Northampton Hank were shadowed for mouths before they wore arrested. Then the celebrated crooks, Scott and Dunlap, were taken in. Billy Connors was shadowed for months and Red Leary for weeks by different detectives. THE INVESTIGATOR in a private agoney Hite ours is the man who goes at once to a place where a crime is committed —such as a bank robbery or a burglary. He mixes with the crowd about the place, talks with those mostly interested, learns everything he can and listens to every remark chopped. Then he forms his own conclusions, and upon those conclusions, if the job of working up the crime is given to our agency, the work is performed.” I “And the roper-in—what is his busi ness?” “He is simply a roper-in. That is all. He must be a man of good address and clever talker, or able to make up as a regu lar rounder, and must be able to take care of himself. He works upon a criminal, gains Ins confidence, and secures a confes sion as to the criminal's guilt. In appear ance he must bo the lust person to bo taken for u detect! ve; but, then, that is equally true of all detectives. AccorcUngly as they become known they loso their usefulness. There is something about the detective business, its excitemont,'that lends a charm no other business possesses. It is ever new, filled with adventures and excitement. Often wheat WORKING UPON ONE CRIME the perpetrators of another are turned up. This is quite natural, particularly with heavy robberies, because professional crooks generally work in gangs.” “Has Cincinnati suffered much from pro fessional crooks ?” asked the reporter. “No. This city has not suffered to any front, extent. The reason is very evident. have at times met In an hour’s walk about town—well, I remember one (lay meeting thirteen of the smartest crooks in America. TlxMt want to live here; like the town, and hence will do nothing here that will queer them with the town. Lincoln Park used to be a great loafing place for them. Many a one I have seen there. They do no harm. Instead, in order to protect themselves keep other crooks freur working the town. About a year ago-there were quite a number of crooks in the city. I remember one night that a gang of eight, pickpockets dropped in here. They had been to Richmond to the unveiling of the monument to Jefferson Davis. They were not here twenty minutes until thoy were told that if they did any thing wrong THEY WOULD BE TIPPED OFF. They came here to work the town, but soon skipped out, and without doing any thing at ail.'’ “150 women make good detectives! 41 W<*ll, do, they don’t, it is a hnnl thing to got a rests*-table woman to do the work, anu any other kind can not bo dcj>ondod upon.” Crooks are divided into different classes, aren’t they?" Oh, ves; and you would be surprised to s -c how close they stick to their own line, i here are tlx,- iron men, who rob safes; then the store burglars, who give their whole attention to stealing silks, kid gioves and laces; the house robbers, hotel thieves. Then comes the higher class, counterfeiters, forgers and confidence men. They take big risss. make big monev and spend it faster than they make it.” it is the old story, is it, of chicken one feathers the next?” Exactly. There is only one exception ns far as 1 know, and that is Max Sh inburn, clux robbtd many a bank in this country. He broke the Ocean Bank, of New York “I’ty? and left America with over $500,000. He has conducted an immense business in Belgium, at one time working over 500 men. MATRIMONY AND MISS HOYT. Her Casual Reference to a Husband. From the New York Times. Ihe statement which Miss Mary Irene Hoyt made to the turnkey at Hackensack, N. J., when she was locked up in jail last Friday-— “I have been married; my husband is a rich man, but he is now in Europe. He’s a dissipated sort of a fellow”—has cre ated a great stir among her numerous friends and relatives. All declare that they never know of any such event; but, on the other hand, they aro prepared to believe almost anything nbout her. One of her life-long acquaintances said last evening: “I have been to see her mother, and she is greatly disturbed over the matter. Miss Hoyt is very eccentric, to say the least, and that she should have been married and conceal the fact until now is not improbable. Also, it is not improbable that she may be laboring under the delusion that she has been married when she lias not. George IV. of England helieved that he had been present at Waterloo and led a charge of the English cavalry, when, in fact, he was in London when tue battle was fought. The peculiar disease w ith which Miss Hoyt is afflicted has caused her to at times fix her thoughts intently on matrimony, and in time she may have come to believe that she once had a husband.” Miss Hoyt, since her return from Hacken sack, has been confined to her residence, 454 Lexington avenue, and her physician, Dr. Joshua L. Barton, is in constant attend ance upon her. It is understood that she is greatly excited over her treatment at Hack ensack. and that Dr. Barton has great diffi culty in calming her. A reporter called at Miss Hoyt’s house last evening. She was unable to see him, but Dr. Barton appeared in her stead. The following convei-sation took place. “Doctor, is it true or false that Miss Hoyt has been married?” “I never have known her except as Miss Hoyt.” “Will you say squarely whether or not, to your knowledge, she ever has been mar ried?” “I decline to say either way.” “Had you ever heard, previous to now, that she was married?” “I decline to answer that question, too.” “Will you authorize me to say that she never was married?” “If you say so you will not be more than ten miles out of the way. I will authorize you to say this: I believe Miss Hoyt made the statement at the Hackensack jail that she was married for the purpose of inducing the turnkey to treat her well. She had an idea that if the jail officials believed she had a husband somewhere they -would not dare to abuse her. I believe that was the sole reason for her saying that she had been married." “Now, doctor, you know as well as any one in the world whether Miss Hoyt has been married or not. If she has not been, why will you not say so unequivocally?” “I can say no more than I have said already.” “Does Miss Hoyt intend to appeal from the decision of the general term of the Supreme Court, defeating her in her at tempt to break her father’s will?” “1 am informed that she does. But her lawyers, Gen. Butler and Mr. Dupignac, can tell vou all about that matter.” “Don’t you know that if Miss Hoyt has been carrying on this litigation under her maiden name, when in fact she has had a husband all the time and her name is not Hoyt, her whole case falls to the ground?” “I suppose it would if she were married.” “In view' of the importance of the matter will you ask Miss Hoyt herself to affirm or contradict her statement of her marriage!” “It is impossible to trouble Miss Hoyt to night. You might ask her mother. I guess she knows. There is something that Miss Hoyt would like to say, that several of the leading citizens of Englewood, where Miss Hoyt lias her villa, have expressed the greatest indignation at her treatment at Hackensack. They say that her arrest was an outrage, as it was.” Mrs. Hoyt's mother, Mrs. Helen W. Hoyt, lives at 51 West Forty-Eighth street. It was impossible to get any communication from her on the subject of her daughter’s marriage. Some of her friends think that Miss Hoyt may have been married during a trip she made to California in 1884 for the purpose of obtaining some testimony in the will case. A COUSIN S PERSECUTION. Preparing a Funeral for a Young Lady Who Was Extremely Alive. A Youngstown (O.) dispatch to the Phila delphia I*reas says: Officers are engaged here in securing evidence showing despic able conduct on the part of a young man. The victim is Miss Jessie White, of Joliet, 111., a niece of Mr. Hiram Park, of this city. Miss White is an educated young lady just past her 17th year and is well known here. Last October the young man began his per secution by having an announcement of the death of Miss White published in a paper and at the same time posting a letter to an undertaker, purporting to bo signed by Mrs. J. <S. White, stating that her daughter was dead,' and requesting that a casket and carriage be furnished for a funeral. The same day several young men, who were known to be warm personal friends of Miss White, received lettei-s requesting them to act as pall bearers. The letters were written on pink tinted note paper and enclosed in envelopes of the same paper. The note re ceived by the undertaker was as follows: Dear Sir—l am obliged to notify you of the death of our beloved daughter Jessie, which was due to heart disease. 1 wish you to furnish the funeral necessaries. The measure for tho casket is five feet two. I want the casket to bo white lined, and very stylish. Please bring some robes, so 1 can select one. Yours respect fully. Mrs. J. S. White. A day or two later the undertaker received the following note: “I have now laid my plans so that the White family will have to grieve the death of their daughter Jessie. It seems as though she wanted to live in single blessedness, for no strange man can win a smile from her. and she passes along the street without looking at me. This city is too quiet and needs a murder case to make excitement. It is always catching before then notes have boon slipped under tho door of her residence, thrown in the yard and sent to her through the mails, all intimating that tho writer would kill her on sight. One morning tho family found a large piece of crape tied on the door knob Mr. Park has a largo number of letters in hfe possession, the writer evidently intending-if possible to frighten Miss White into insanity. Officers wore placed in charge of the cu.se and Mr. Park lias received a message stating that the alleged writer of the letters has been ar rested His name is D. C. White, and he is a cousin of tho young ladv. He was found loitering around her residence, and when ar rested, said: “I didn’t write those letters, and you can’t prove it.” On searching his room note pai>er wa* found romwixmrlmg to that on which the letters were written. He was placed under bonds to await a hearing, I and Mr. Park left for Joliet to-day to look 1 alter tite case? THE MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY, JUNE 24. 1887. WRITING OFFICIAL HISTORY. The War Records Office and Its Volu minous Contents. From the IVasliinqton Star. The place where “war reminiscences" are made is here in Washington. It is a little square, graystone building on G street. Any sort of war reminiscence that is wanted can be had there on very short notice. The wer articles that appear in such numbers in popular magazines and newspapers, written by great generals and privates with wonder ful recollections, come in part or in full from this place. ‘lf a general of either army is called upon by the Century or some other popular {K-riodical to write his recollections of the war, he repairs at once to this place to gather up his recollections. It is a sort of magic cell which awakens lagging memory and corrects papular fallacies. Gen. Wal lace, Gen. Beauregard, Col. Allen, Gen. Corse, Gen. Smith and Gen. Sherman all go thFre to put on their thinking caps; or, when they do not go in person, thoy write for information. This great wakener of recollections is the War Records Office. The amount of information they have col lected is almost inconceivable. A great mass of the material for file war articles that have appeared in the Century is dug out of the records there. Many old war veterans go there and search out the old documents before writing the history of what they saw. It is astonishing how often they are forced by the cold, dried and well preserved facts to discard jiet notions al>out how things were, and are obliged to revise their impressions about things with which they had thought themselves entirely familiar. Frequently officers of the two opposing armies, who have led the charge against each other’s forces, have met here for tho first time to know each other. Each look ing at the battle or manouvre from a differ ent standpoint, they come to look over the records to see how it really was. There is no chance for any quarrel about it. There is no room for any exaggeration. The records are right at- hand to sustain the truth or to brand as a fallacy. Generally, both men find that their impressions were not quite right. Facts make friends; so they soon become cordial. There have been some remarkable meetings here of men who have fought hard face to face, but never met before. All who have met this way have become friends. They sit and talk tho whole thing over, correct each other’s errors of memory, or are both set right by the record. Sherman, Sheridan, Beauregard, Hunt, Wallace, Long and the younger Lees have met there. Sherman has drawn largely upon these records in some of his writings. Gen. Grant, while writing his book, was in constant communication with Geu. Marcus J. Wright, who does the work of collecting the Confederate records. A large amount of the matter in the book was got this way. He also furnished information to the office, and corrected some erroneous statements made. Jeff Davis has drawn ui>on this source for informantion for use in his book. Gen. Wright has in his possession a letter book filled with nothing but letters from Grant and Davis upon the same subjects. Strange to say, Jeff Davis was among the very first to respond to the call of the gov ernment for official papers of the Confede'-- aey. He sent all the papers cheerfully as soon as he received the request. When the work of collecting the records was first be gun, it was thought that they would nevir be able to get enough of the Confederate papers to make the record complete; but for nine years now, Gen. Wright has been writing to the surviving Confederate officers, or to the families of officers who were killed, and he has succeeded in collecting fully as complete a record of the Confederate army as is had of the Federal. All letters or orders written by officials or officers of the army during the war that relate at all to the sub ject of the war are. collected and compiled and printed without editing. When the work is all done, there will have to be an other history of tho war written from these records. Many things that have been ac cepted as truths will be proved by these records to be absolutely false. Thoy will show that officers on both sides have been overestimated, and that other officers have never got tho credit that was due them. There is a sort of halo of romance sur rounding all the loittlos that puts history in a false light. Officers, in writing report* of battles, under the excitement of the time, have often fallen into the error of exagger ating the enemy’s forces. One very popular error which has been corrected by these rec ords is with relation to the first battle of Bull Run. It has always been believed that the Federal forces on that occasion greatly outnumlicred the Confederates. It has gone into history so. In the North as well us in the South it has been accepted as a fact not to be disputed, and the Northern people have always felt a little shame that their large army should have been defeated by so much smaller force of Confederates. These records bring to light the fact that there was not a difference of a thousand men between the strength of the two armies, and of those ac tually engaged in the battle, the Confederates had within five hundred of as many men as tho FederaLs. There are a number of other cases where tho odds of Battle have been ac cepted as very heavy when such was not the case, and there are the expositions of plans and purposes that throw an entirely new light on history. Besides tho official records that will all, in course of time, be bound in many volumes, Gen. Wright has in his pos session many private letters, written to him by officers on noth sides, which will be of great interest some time. Another very interesting thing is the col lection of photographs of the Union and Confeaerato officers. The walls ot the room in which he works is covered with these photographs, and several large size packing boxes are filled with them. lie has the picture of almost any officer on either side anyone would bo likely to want. In all, he has about 1,300 of them, from gen eral to colonels, captains, lieutenants, and even privates of certain famous corf is. One of the latter groups is Bulbor's Battery, O. 8. artillery. Federal and Confederate officers are hung together indiscriminately in the collection, with here and there a minister or a priest. All the famous com manding officers, and hundreds who won fame within a narrower limit, are there. Tho collection includes a great many pic tures not to Lie had elsewhere, and this gal lery has been drawn upon largely Tor illus trations, as the records have for facts by war writers. MEDICAL.
